BACKYARD BIRDS OF VIRGINIA (plus Ducks, Geese, Shorebirds, and Seabirds) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798267887649)

Virginia contains around 490 species of birds. Some of them are with us year-round, and some visit us at certain times of the year. We won't try to cover them all, but we will look at some of the more familiar and interesting species. This book will cover most backyard birds seen in your yards, trees, bushes, at your feeders, and more. There are also sections on ducks, geese, shorebirds, and seabirds.

In this book, you will find great color pictures, detailed descriptions, information on sounds, diet, season you will see them, and more. I hope you will use this to identify the birds you see and enjoy those birds even more.

The first section of this book covers backyard birds, which are birds associated primarily with the land. Other birds live in close proximity to the water, and this water could be fresh or salt. The birds that are closely associated with water are found in the following sections. These water birds have been separated into three groups: (1) ducks, (2) geese, and lastly, (3) shorebirds and seabirds are grouped.

Ducks (Group 1, page 231) have their own section, and so do geese (Group 2, page 241).

Our third group (Group 3, page 242) of birds are the shorebirds and seabirds. These birds are much more associated with salt water, so they are separated into their own group.
